We repair all brands and types of water heaters, and if yours needs to be replaced, we can often have a new one installed the same day.
Water Heater Repair
Before we recommend replacing your hot water heater, we'll see if a repair makes sense. Common problems we fix include:
- No hot water: could be a bad heating element, thermostat, or pilot light
- Not enough hot water: sediment buildup, broken dip tube, or undersized tank
- Water too hot: thermostat issue, usually an easy fix
- Leaking tank: sometimes repairable, sometimes means it's time for a new one
- Strange noises: popping or rumbling usually means sediment buildup
- Rusty water: corroded anode rod or aging tank
Water Heater Replacement
If your hot water heater is 10+ years old or the tank is leaking, replacement is usually the smarter move. Here's what you need to know:
- Cost: a new hot water heater typically runs $2,000 to $2,500 installed
- $50 OFF: we're currently offering $50 off water heater installation
- Financing: 0% for 60 months through Synchrony
- Same-day installation: in most cases, we can install your new water heater the same day
Tank vs. Tankless Water Heaters
Tank Water Heaters
The traditional option most homes have. They store 40-50 gallons of hot water and keep it ready. They're affordable, reliable, and easy to maintain. Most of our installations are tank-style water heaters.
Tankless Water Heaters
Tankless units heat water on demand, you never run out. They're more expensive upfront but use less energy since they're not keeping a tank of water hot 24/7. They're a great option if you have a bigger family or want to save on energy bills long-term.
Not sure which is right for you? We'll help you decide based on your household size, hot water usage, and budget.
